LKF Brings in First Ever Thai Market This December

Lan Kwai Fong is bringing the first-ever Thai Festival by Sansiri at Lan Kwai Fong to the city’s most famous street from December 2-3, 2017, with the help of Sansiri Public Company Limited, Thailand's leading full-service real estate developer; BTS Group, a leading provider of passenger services in Thailand; King Power Duty Free, the country's first and largest duty free operator; the Royal Thai Consulate-General in Hong Kong and the Tourism Authority of Thailand

After five years of wowing Thailand with the "Winter Market Fest", and their sensationally successful "The Finest Thai" event in Singapore, Sansiri is ready to bring this iconic event to Hong Kong, and where else could it be but Lan Kwai Fong?

All of Lan Kwai Fong is getting turned into a Thai wonderland, which starts the moment you walk up the hill and are greeted by Thailand’s beloved “Giants of Fortune”, who are making their first-ever appearance in Hong Kong. San Giant and Siri Giant (meaning endless joy and happiness) will be on hand to bless every visitor. At four meters tall, they’re hard to miss and make a perfect Instagram opportunity.

Once you’ve met the friendly giants, you can walk over to the colourful kite display, and discover the ancient Thai pastime that everyone from kings to commoners enjoys. They’re even prettier when you know the food area is at the end of them!

It’s not just any food area, it’s a pop-up floating market serving all your Thai favourites, from boat noodles to mango sticky rice. They’ll be serving authentic dishes, traditionally found in Bangkok’s floating market. Don’t miss the somtum, a spicy papaya salad that goes great with sticky rice and the famed Hat Yai fried chicken, marinated in a special blend of spices and piled high with crispy fried shallots.

There is even a beer drinking competition presented by Singha, which is sure to entertain.

Of course, no Lan Kwai Fong festival would be complete without some entertainment, like Lao Kra Top Mai, the traditional bamboo dance, Serng, the Northeast Thai folk dancing and Thai kick-boxing from POW (a great, but terrifying workout!). There will be stalls selling traditional and Thai-inspired items, perfect for early Christmas gifts, and a fun photobooth.

We can’t wait to check out the Harnn booth, Thailand’s leading natural skincare and home spa product maker, that use Asian wisdom to restore the natural balance between mind, body and environment. It’s their first pop-up in Hong Kong and a visit is guaranteed to melt away the pre-holiday stress.

The 'Chok-Dee' is another must-visit. Meaning 'Luckiness', it is the nation's most popular concept store, selling the most sought-after souveneirs, like hand-painted cereamic plates and the world-renowned Thai tea Cha Tra Mue. It's a totally unique shop that shouldn't be missed.

King Power, the country’s leading travel retailer has just launched 'MOMENT', a new brand that showcases the best of Thai culture, arts and crafts. Don't miss the photobooth - where you can get a free photo printed out with their majestic fountain as a backdrop.

Mr. Cobby Leathers, Head of International Business for Sansiri Public Company Ltd. said, "In addition to luxurious real estate developments, we also believe that residents should be able to enjoy a holistic and vibrant living experience that matches their cosmopolitan needs. Sansiri is proud to expand our brand footprint by harnessing our expertise in the lifestyle sector with events such as Thai Festival by Sansiri at Lan Kwai Fong to strengthen our presence in key foreign markets like Hong Kong”

The Thai Festival by Sansiri at Lan Kwai Fong runs from December 2-3pm.
